Mark VI ASM II.

This is coolbert:

Conclusion!Don't go big! Go small?

A MISSILE FIRING MARK VI PATROL BOAT IN THE IMAGE OF FRENCH NAVAL THEORY AS WAS ENUNCIATED IN THE LATE NINETEENTH CENTURY?

Jeune École!

"Jeune École ('Young School') was a strategic naval concept developed during the 19th century. It advocated the use of small, powerfully equipped units to combat a larger battleship fleet, and commerce raiders capable of ending the trade of the rival nation. The idea was developed among French naval theorists"

MARK VI ADMITTEDLY NOT A PELAGIC [DEEP WATER] WARSHIP. BUT CAN BE CARRIED WITHIN AN ALREADY EXISTING AMPHIBIOUS ASSAULT VESSEL! MARK VI TRANSPORTED TO THE SCENE OF THE ACTION AND DEPLOYED WHEN NEEDED? THIS IS DO-ABLE AND RIGHT NOW?

A Mark VI torpedo boat as being taken [?] into the interior of an amphibious assault vessel]. [AAV].

How many of these patrol boats as armed with a firing unit of four American LRSAM [long-range anti-ship missile] can fit within an AAV?
